Chapter 215: The Cunning Little Spider x Illumi Trapped in the Boudoir
Meteor City never believed in tears, only in fists and strength.
Uvogin submitted... Nobunaga submitted too... Nothing to say when skills are inferior. If there was any regret... the two reluctantly looked at the silent Chrollo behind them. It was regret... for not listening to him just now.
Tap... tap... Footsteps sounded dull and continuous...
Kastro dragged them like dead dogs. Sarasa, looking bewildered, grabbed Chrollo's small hand, treating him as a life-saving straw, looking at him pleadingly, following behind. "Little Kuro, you know them, right?"
"You must have a way too, right?"
What way can I have? What can I possibly do?
IQ? Vision? Knowledge... In the face of absolute strength, it's all... bullshit!
Chrollo's face was dark, silent. He remembered Boss Belus's warning yesterday: "Tell your little brothers not to go to District 4 recently. I received news that some formidable guys are coming soon!"
He even asked naively, "More formidable than Bolton and Ilya?"
The answer was: "More formidable than them!"
That day, Boss Belus patted his shoulder and looked at him deeply. "Kid, you've seen how powerful those Nen users are. I can tell you for sure now, Meteor City isn't just a garbage dump, but also a testing ground and playground for some people. One Bolton died, more and more powerful Boltons will emerge. And behind them stands... an existence I dare not even touch."
Boss Belus drove him out after saying that... He was apprehensive and unwilling to say more... But being afraid to even touch... showed how deep the water behind Meteor City was, bottomless at a glance!
"I dare not promise you anything, nor do I have that ability. If you trust me, don't panic, watch my cues." The boy held Sarasa's small hand back, put a finger to his lips, signaling her to be silent.
The group chased Kastro across the square, through the gate, into the prayer hall. Unlike the True Lord Church... the prayer hall, having experienced temperatures near ten thousand degrees, was empty... At the very front, only one person dressed as a priest, holding a broom, was methodically sweeping the floor.
"Praise the Sun." Kastro came to Roy, tossing Uvogin and Nobunaga aside with left and right hands. He took a rag and started wiping the glass on the spot... Leaving Chrollo, Sarasa, and the latecomers Pakunoda and Shalnark looking at each other in dismay.
Silence was the prayer hall at this moment, except for the occasional sweeping and wiping sounds...
The little ones, including Uvogin and Nobunaga limp on the ground, couldn't help but swallow, so nervous... they could even hear their own heartbeats clearly...
At some point, seemingly noticing them.
Roy looked over with a smile. "Sit."
The empty hand pointed casually in front of Chrollo and Sarasa. Dead wood blooming... several small holes suddenly broke open on the empty stone floor. Saplings emerged from the holes, growing branches rapidly, weaving themselves, knotting themselves. In the blink of an eye, several rattan chairs were condensed... quietly lying next to Chrollo, Sarasa, Pakunoda, and Shalnark.
For a moment, the four, including Uvogin and Nobunaga limp aside, stared wide-eyed, brains crashing!
Squeak... squeak... The rag rubbing against the glass made a tooth-aching sound...
Ignoring the dazed group, Roy tossed the broom into the corner. His finger swiped in mid-air, using [Wood Style] to make a wooden table, a few chairs, and a few teacups, placing them one by one in front of Chrollo and the others.
He sat opposite across the wooden table, pointing at the cups. Water flew from his fingertip into the teacups, steaming slightly. This was "Nen Property Change [Water]," also known as "Water Style"!
"My Lord told you to sit, didn't you hear?" Seeing them still dazed, Kastro swept over with a dissatisfied remark...
Shalnark's legs went weak, sitting down heavily. followed by Pakunoda, Sarasa, and finally... Chrollo, who took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.
[Notification: Your "Potential Believer" Uvogin... amazed by your display of skills, "Loyalty" +5...]
[Note: Loyalty comes from awe]
[Notification: Your "Potential Believer" Nobunaga, Sarasa... amazed by your display of skills, "Loyalty" +5...]
[Note: Loyalty comes from awe]
[Notification: Detected "Potential Believer" Chrollo... Shalnark... Pakunoda three names, Loyalty +5...]
[Note: Loyalty comes from awe]
Only with awe in heart can one stop in action... The panel notification rang suddenly... Roy's clone Taichi poured tea for them smilingly, saying warmly, "Forgive Kastro's presumptuousness. If you didn't come to cause trouble, he wouldn't have attacked you."
"It's my fault!"
"It has nothing to do with Sarasa and the others!"
"Priest, if you want to kill, kill me!" Uvogin struggled, propping himself up, shouting with all his strength. Opening his mouth, another mouthful of blood spurted out, dyeing his chest red...
"Little Uvo!" Sarasa sprang up from the chair. Halfway... she was firmly pressed down by a hand extended by Chrollo. The boy with a bowl cut was faster than her. Pulling out the rattan chair, he bowed respectfully to Roy. "Priest-sama, I want to join the church!"
"And him... her... him..."
Chrollo pointed at Sarasa, Pakunoda, Shalnark, and finally Uvogin and Nobunaga, saying resolutely, "We all want to join the church!"
"Please agree!"
After speaking, Chrollo bowed deeply, burying his head...
Inside the huge empty prayer hall, several gazes shot over Whoosh!
Sarasa, Pakunoda, Shalnark, Uvogin, Nobunaga all looked at Chrollo in astonishment. Cold sweat dripped down the boy's forehead. Silent, not looking up, like a suspect quietly waiting for Roy's judgment...
Time tick tock... tick tock... like a small hammer constantly hitting his heart, tormenting him with anxiety... His inner voice, even without Roy differentiating a Heart Worm to capture it, was heard completely by En alone!
"I have a friend, rather reckless, doesn't like listening to people."
"One day he insisted on troubling someone, but I knew that person was dangerous. I wanted to stop him but couldn't."
"As a result, he really got into trouble. No choice..."
"I can only compromise, temporarily seek refuge with that dangerous person, and pull my friend along. I think..."
"As long as I become the other party's accomplice, the other party won't make things difficult for my friend, Chrollo..."
A spot of scarlet slowly climbed up the corner of his eye. Roy looked smilingly at the boy with his head bowed. Extending a finger, he lifted the other's chin. As the three ink-black tomoe slowly rotated, he could even see his own reflection in the boy's pupils. He said casually, "Am I right?"
Chrollo was forced to look up, facing the Sharingan directly. With a blink, he instantly felt the world spin... Recovering...
A black plastic bag appeared in his arms at some point. Opening the plastic bag revealed Uvogin's head, eyes wide open, staring straight at him!
A blood-curdling scream exploded!
"AHHHH!"
Republic of Padokea, inside a black sedan driving from the capital airport to Kukuroo Mountain.
A teasing chuckle came out...
"Heh heh, cunning little spider..."
Followed by a young butler's suspicious check...
"Young Master, what spider? Is there a spider in the car?"
"Not talking about the car."
In the black sedan, sharing vision, Roy witnessed Taichi giving the dishonest Chrollo a small lesson via Genjutsu. Once he recovered, harvesting five points of loyalty from him through "awe."
Opening the window, watching the scenery retreat outside. In the distance, continuous mountains were faintly visible, Kukuroo Mountain. He stretched simply, then landed. As the sedan stopped steadily in front of the tall mountain gate with a Screech~...
Nodding to Zebro who rushed forward to greet him with Gotoh, he took a deep breath, extended a hand, pushed open five gates, and walked straight in.
BOOM! Five Testing Gates weighing 64 tons opened and fell, blocking Zebro's view from outside... The gatekeeper, missing another tuft of hair after a few days, muttered to himself, "Young Master has improved again..."
Vaguely seemed to see a pair of hollow, lifeless eyes behind the door... seemed to be... the Second Young Master!
"You finally know to come back!" Inside the gate, Roy had just walked in with Gotoh when he smelled the scent of a stinking little brother!
Illumi, arms crossed, leaned against the Testing Gate, looking over expressionlessly. Unaware of a leaf falling on his head, he seemed to have waited for a long, long time...
"Is a week a long time?" Roy turned to ask Gotoh.
"This..." Gotoh looked carefully at Roy, then carefully at Illumi, looking up at the sky, saying to himself, "The weather is so nice today."
Roy: "..."
Corner of his eye twitching, he kicked Gotoh's butt. Then he brushed past Illumi's shoulder, casually tossing him a wooden nail.
"Your birthday present."
Illumi was stunned. Catching the wooden nail firmly in one hand, he looked at the boy climbing the stairs and shouted at Roy's back, "My birthday is in November, it's only May now!"
"Just say, do you want it or not?"
"Want!"
